Cisco Enterprise Routers Reviews

Cisco Enterprise Routers are helpful to connect customers to service providers. We can use hardware or software, such as SD-WAN. The Cisco antenna for SD-WAN is good. The solution is an easy setup.

The most valuable features of Cisco Enterprise Routers are the routing tables, and backup solutions available for local sites, and you can use it as a router gateway or simple IPS. They have simple firewalls, that we can use rules to filter traffic.

Cisco Enterprise Router's price could improve, they are expensive.

I have been using Cisco Enterprise Routers for approximately 15 years.

Cisco Enterprise Routers is stable.

I have found Cisco Enterprise Routers to be scalable.

We have approximately 300 clients using this solution.

Cisco Enterprise Routers come installed with its OS. They are easy to configure initially. However, it can depend on the design or features that you use. The initial setup is easy and takes approximately five minutes.

If Cisco Enterprise Routers could be less expensive it would be better. In Turkey, clients prefer cheap solutions, but working solutions.

There is a license needed to enable some features. If you want support from Cisco then you need to purchase it. However, it includes operating system upgrades.

I would recommend this solution to others.

I rate Cisco Enterprise Routers an eight out of ten.

We are using it as a voice gateway. We need to connect with PSTN, and we are communicating with the outside world through this router.

Its performance and stability are most valuable. We are using it for the last five years, and it is constantly up. It didn't create any problems for us.

It is very easy to use. The handling of the device is very easy. It doesn't require any maintenance. After many months in a year, we bring it down, and we just do the normal cleaning and maintenance of the device. 

If Cisco can give you one license and allow you to use all the features, that would be the best thing. We are using it only as a voice gateway, and there are other options available, but we need to procure licenses to use those options. We can use it as a security device, or we can use it for connecting the LAN side, but for that, we need all those licenses. They can provide one license and allow you to use all the features. This is my recommendation for Cisco.

It is quite costly. It would be great if they can reduce its price.

I have been using this solution for five years.

It is very stable.

We didn't contact them so far.

Its installation is quite straightforward. Cisco provides plenty of helpful documents. There are many videos available on YouTube and Cisco's site to provide us the required information. So, it was not a problem for us.

It is quite costly. Its price should be reduced.

I would highly recommend this solution to other users. It is very reliable, and its performance is good.

I would rate Cisco Enterprise Routers a 10 out of 10.

Something I like about the solution is all the options it offers and ways it can be configured. I can do things with ease and find the relevant documentation to assist me. I believe that the reason the company chose to go with Cisco products is because they offer everything needed. 

While scalability is available, it must be paid for. The licensing and price could be improved as the equipment purchased may come with very basic commands that require the consumer to pay for a more expensive license for a greater array of functions. The licensing policy can sometimes be very complicated. 

All other aspects of the solution are fine, as in the past it was only possible to use certain commands to configure the solution, but now there is also the option of using a graphical interface. 

We have been using Cisco Enterprise Routers for around 10 years.

The solution is very stable. 

While scalability is available, this option costs money. 

We do not have experience with technical support for the simple reason that we did not purchase it. As such, we must rely on ourselves for this or read the relevant documentation. 

We use Cisco Enterprise Routers mostly for the core network and in a satellite network. We use the equipment to connect our equipment to the internet and provide a robust infrastructure to satellite equipment.
It's a complement of the satellite network, and mostly all the switches and routers that we use are from Cisco. Only the permanent equipment for our modems and the modulators are satellite equipment.

It's a sound solution, so it's very easy to solve problems without a support contract, as mainly the problems we have related to the equipment can be solved by doing a Google search. Because it's a very well known solution, there are books on problems. It's a solution that fits us, as we probably can't afford a very expensive contract.

It is stable and scalable, and it can be set up fast.

It can be very expensive, sometimes, to do the jump to the next router for your needs. It will be great if you can buy a variable router and then upgrade or enable features as you grow. Otherwise, it can become very expensive to have robust equipment.

In the next release, I would like to see more free SD-WAN features and vertical solutions.

I've been using this solution for more than 10 years.

It's a pretty stable solution. We have not had to reboot in a couple of years. It's very rare that we need to reboot a router or a switch.

It is a scalable solution.

The basic configuration can be setup in a day.

It's not probably the best solution if you have a very limited budget, as it can become very expensive to have robust equipment.

If you want an easy solution to keep your network running in a very short time, Cisco Enterprise Routers is a good option. It's not probably the best solution if you have a very limited budget.

On a scale from one to ten, I would rate Cisco Enterprise Routers at nine.

We are not a big organization. We are using Cyberoam and Cisco Routers for our traffic. We are using the 5501 model.

Cisco Enterprise Routers are simple. Everything is in a proper manner. You don't need to upgrade or do other things on a daily basis. Cisco sends you the updates, and they are automatically updated. They are good.

They take too much time to reboot or restart. Whenever we hard reset them, they take time. Cisco should resolve this issue.

I have been using this solution for around six to seven years.

They are stable. We haven't faced any issues.

Their technical support is good. They will help you in a proper and decent manner. They are calm. Every time you have a lot of questions or queries, they will come back to you with a positive response.

Their initial setup is normal. You need to configure DHCP and other things.

The price of Cisco Enterprise Routers is good for the service that you get.

I would recommend this solution. Everything is good. Cisco is a good company, and Cisco products are good.

I would rate Cisco Enterprise Routers a nine out of ten.

We primarily use these routers for establishing connections between different sites. These connections allow our users at different locations to access the network.

The feature that I like most is the routing.

This product is very easy to use.

Cisco has a lot of problems with the graphical interfaces used for management. 

We have been working with Cisco Enterprise Routers for almost 10 years.

These routers are very stable.

The technical support is very good.

Cisco routers are very pricey. This is the biggest complaint from customers for which we provide support.

My advice for anybody who is considering this product is that it is very easy to use, and there is a large community to support you. I recommend checking the licensing because sometimes when you buy the product, you may forget to check the licensing and warranty information.

We have seen that most clients work with third-parties when it comes to a monitoring solution for Cisco routers.

In summary, this is a good product and one that I recommend.

I would rate this solution a ten out of ten.

We are a reseller of Cisco Enterprise Routers with around 10 clients using Cisco's enterprise equipment. The deployment model (on-prem, cloud, etc.) varies between the different clients and the routers are mainly used for either routing or Voice over IP. We also work with D-Link and HP in addition to Cisco.

The stability is very good. 

Performance is one area that could be improved. The stability of the devices is great, but performance-wise we find that upgrading the memory or changing the device entirely is sometimes necessary. 

I have been dealing with Cisco Enterprise Routers for almost 20 years. 

The stability of Cisco Enterprise Routers is very good, although sometimes there are issues with performance, or IP wastage. Usually, we are able to overcome performance issues by upgrading memory or changing the device, if need be. In most cases, when you do upgrade the memory or other components, it usually sorts itself out.

The scalability is okay.

The technical support of Cisco is generally quite good and I can recommend reaching out to them for help.

Sometimes the initial setup can be complicated, depending on the complexity of the network. In general, however, we are able to manage.

Normally, we pay for the licenses upfront. I think it's mostly just a perpetual, once-off license.

Cisco Enterprise Routers are good. I can't rate them ten out of ten, but I wouldn't hesitate to give them a nine out of ten.

We are a payment gateway company and we use Cisco Enterprise Routers primarily for connecting with our partners outside on the point-to-point fiber VPN IPsec.

One of the most valuable features of this solution is performance.

Cisco Enterprise Routers could improve by making their solution more user-friendly. Currently, users need to have extensive knowledge of networking to use them because there is only a command-line interface for the configuration. They should add a graphical interface to allow junior users guidance and more flexibility when doing the configuration.

I have been using the solution for approximately six years.

The solution is stable compared to others, such as FortiGate.

Cisco Enterprise Routers is highly scalable.

We are payment gateway company that tracks accepting transactions and all the traffic coming from our partners or people outside that want to do a transaction, such as online or ATM on POS, are using the Cisco Enterprise Router. Additionally, the internal staff of 50 are using it.

We do not have plans to increase usage at this time.

We did not have any issues with the technical support. However, there could be better documentation for the solution.

The initial setup for our Cisco Enterprise Router was complex because of our environment. Before deploying it, we had to comply with some security standards that was a bit difficult.

This solution is expensive compared to competitors. There are additional costs if you want to have their support.

I have evaluated other solutions, such as FortiGate.

I would recommend this solution to others in certain situations, it depends on the company and their use case. If the company has a critical environment, I would recommend Cisco Enterprise Routers. The solution is stable and the support is very good.

I rate Cisco Enterprise Routers an eight out of ten.
